derivative of

2^{x} + 2^{- x}

2^{x} ln (2) - ln (2) \cdot 2^{- x}

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (2^{x} + 2^{- x})

Apply the Sum/Difference Rule:

(f \pm g)^{'} = f^{'} \pm g^{'}

= \frac{d}{d x} (2^{x}) + \frac{d}{d x} (2^{- x})

\frac{d}{d x} (2^{x}) = 2^{x} ln (2)

\frac{d}{d x} (2^{- x}) = - ln (2) \cdot 2^{- x}

= 2^{x} ln (2) - ln (2) \cdot 2^{- x}
